We saw them at the San Diego Wild Animal Park. Pretty cool looking beast, almost like a giraffe/zebra hybrid. It's actually a relative of the giraffe. Here's some more information on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okapi What's the most unusual animal you have ever seen?

They are pretty rare. The only one I know of is the San Diego Wild Animal Park. Good luck!
